Just after the report was completed, a sharp and piercing alarm sounded.

In an instant, all the sleeping compartments in the spacecraft control room were opened.

The sleeping pink creature suddenly opened its eyes, with panic in its red eyes.

"The highest level alert, the highest level alert, a meteorite flow occurred at coordinates A5247, S1547, and X24567. It collided after 5 seconds and the weapon system moved"

"chirp chirp……"

The tentacles on the red-tailed creature's head swayed, and its mouth emitted strange sound waves.

The entire control room was in panic.

The spacecraft's weapon systems have been turned on and are all aimed in the direction of the meteorite. boom!!!

Particle beams flew towards the meteorite stream. The meteorites that were hit exploded instantly and turned into smaller fragments flying in all directions.

"Alert, alert, hull damage"

"Warning, the hull is damaged, please leave the spacecraft immediately, please leave the spacecraft immediately."

The red-tailed creature heard the alarm, with despair in its eyes.

Boom!

The impact of the large meteorite caused the spacecraft that had been wandering in the universe for who knows how many years to explode instantly.

Countless fragments and spacecraft debris shot out in all directions.

Among them, the largest The fragments, along with the meteorite rain, are heading towards the Orion constellation.

On the Orion spiral arm in the direction of the flight of the fragments, the sun still emits its eternal light.

The blue earth is still spinning forward.

"it's beautiful."

On the Rise, Mo Xinya was leaning by the window, looking at the blue planet outside the window, with an excited face.

Next to her was Jiang Feng, with a somewhat complicated expression.

The two of them were like two children who had never seen the world, staring intently. Earth.

The blue, fluorescent planet in front of them is the planet they live on.

No living creatures can be seen, and their huge company headquarters is so small that it cannot be seen at all.

How big their vision is and how broad their mind is.

At this moment, they Only then can I truly feel that human beings are in the universe. They are smaller than dust. To the eternal universe, they are just fleeting passers-by.

People with unstable minds may experience this feeling of insignificance directly. Losing fighting spirit.

Seeing Mo Xinya who was only excited, Jiang Feng was a little envious.

Sometimes it was good to have someone to take care of him, so he didn’t have to think too much. Lin Feng next to him had a calm look on his face.

Only now did he understand that Lin Feng faces his fighting spirit to challenge the universe.

I'm afraid this man will not disappear into the river of the universe willingly.

"You tell me, are there really other life and star civilizations in this universe?"

After Mo Xinya came back to her senses, she felt a little emotional about the earth.

"Let the great scientists answer you."

Jiang Feng and Mo Xinya both looked at Lin Feng, waiting for his answer.

"This question is similar to that of deep-sea bacteria. Bacteria living in small pits deep in ocean trenches ask whether there are other bacteria outside. Lin

Feng said with emotion:"There must be some, but they are limited to the deep sea.""

"But isn’t there a Fermi Paradox?

Assuming there are aliens, millions of years ahead of our development, space travel must have discovered us.

However, we have not found aliens appearing, nor have we found evidence that aliens really exist. Does that mean there are no aliens?"

"Okay, I even know these theories. Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Just heard about it."Mo Xinya said

"This paradox is a paradox.

In fact, in Liu Cixin's"Three-Body", the dark forest law is used as a possible explanation for the Fermi Paradox.

The general idea is that alien civilizations deliberately hide themselves.

Not to be discovered by other alien civilizations, so as not to attract the cleanup of more advanced civilizations.

But it was just a possibility. Not all civilizations would hide from each other, so humans launched Voyager 1.

There are many other possible explanations for the Fermi Paradox.

Just like the deep-sea bacteria I just mentioned, the Fermi Paradox is equivalent to the deep-sea bacteria asking, are there other organisms outside?

If so, why haven't they been discovered yet?

Or they discover evidence of our existence.

If they don't discover us, does that mean we don't exist?

In fact, there is a problem of discovery time span.

Millions of years are a long time for humans, but a short time for the universe.

Millions of years ago, we were just a puddle of liquid.

Assuming that bacteria on the seabed can only live for two days, how many generations will it have to pass on before it is discovered by us?

Maybe a few decades from now, a deep-sea scientific exploration.

Humans discovered that deep-sea bacterial colony, and then a few decades later, they discovered a second bacterial colony and a third bacterial colony?

The time to discover those bacterial colonies is sooner or later.

The same problem applies to us.

Suppose we are a colony in the deep sea of ​​the universe. What if the aliens’ journey of exploration has not yet discovered us?

After all, space travel is much more dangerous than deep-sea exploration and much wider than the ocean.

Of course, you can also assume that all creatures in the universe appeared at the same time, and we are the generation with the fastest formation of civilization.

Millions of years later, our universe explores and discovers other civilizations.

Regardless of the outcome, scientific inference shows that extraterrestrial life exists.

But in the universe, what is the probability that we are the first generation of cosmic civilization?

This probability is equivalent to the fact that all living things on earth think that they are the first generation civilization.

The probability exists, but this probability is estimated to be lower than the lottery probability of Penguin Game."

Hearing the last joke, Mo Xinya and Jiang Feng couldn't help laughing.

"I think the probability of lottery draw should be a little higher than that of Penguin Game."Jiang Feng said with a joking smile.

"It’s so complicated, but luckily I’m stupid and don’t have to think about it that much."Mo Xinya said.

She roughly understood the meaning of Lin Feng's explanation. As for thinking about it in detail, it was not within her scope.

"Are you afraid that one day aliens will discover our 'colony' and capture you as a specimen for study just like humans capture specimens?"Jiang Feng asked

"Then I will aspire to be the one who infects them with the deadly superbug"

"If we are discovered by aliens, won't they directly exterminate us as described in the Three-Body Problem?"Mo Xinya asked curiously

"Maybe, but maybe not, a civilization of the same level.

Or when the civilization level of two species is close, the law of the dark forest may apply.

For example, during the Age of Discovery, the Indians in America were massacred and exterminated.

But civilizations at the same level, or civilizations at a level similar to ours.

The probability that the universe will reach us is too small, and the time span and distance span are too long.

Unless a civilization of the same level as ours finds a habitat like the Trisolaris, it is impossible for the entire race to exterminate us. _Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection,
